Happy Thanksgiving, everybody! My day has been tragically turkeyless (Thanksgiving Day is technically over already, here in Kawagoe), but I have so much to be thankful for anyway...the fact that I passed my kanji quiz the other day, for one...that I have brought you something extra to be thankful for in celebration of this gastronomically satisfying holiday. XD Whoever wrote this next chapter seems to be very thankful for Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, anyway...

(Once again, here is a SPOILER WARNING! This book draws on the ENTIRE SERIES for its examples, which means it is chockablock with spoilers. You have been warned.)

And so, without further ado, I bring you, scanned and translated where necessary...the fourth installment of The English Alchemist!
